"Something Changed" is a song by Britpop band Pulp, released on their 1995 album, Different Class.
Written much earlier in the band's existence but revived for the Different Class sessions, "Something Changed" features lyrics that focused on the random nature as to how important events happen in life.
[7] The single was released with two different sleeves (a "boy" and "girl" version), but with identical track listings.
Like the other singles from the album, the song charted within the top 10 in the UK, reaching number 10.
The B-side, "Mile End", appeared on the Trainspotting soundtrack album and became a number-one hit in Iceland, where it was the second-most-successful song of 1996.
Robert Christgau of The Village Voice wrote in his review of Different Class, "If 'Common People' should fall short, I recommend Island proceed directly to 'Something Changed,' a happy love song every bit as clever and realistic as his class war song.
"[12] All lyrics are written by Jarvis Cocker; all music is composed by Jarvis Cocker, Nick Banks, Steve Mackey, Russell Senior, Candida Doyle and Mark WebberSpanish band Astrud released an album of rarities and b-sides called Algo cambió (Spanish for Something Changed) which featured a Spanish-language version of the song.
